GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The school is overall good. But sometimes the school lunch isn't appetizing for my kid. But I think that the school is overall great. Just make better lunch. :)

Pearls has been a really great school for me the last 5 years I've been there. I always have to think creatively, and I feel I've gotten to express my thoughts and opinions throughout my work, no matter what class or assignment it was. I also highly recommend this school to people who want to feel ready for high school, because I know I 110% do. Definitely give it a look!!

PEARLS was a very diverse school and was challenging in academics. The teachers really cared about their student's success. There were school trips all the time that enhanced our knowledge of the world.

This school can do much better. Too many teachers do not seem to realize that they may also be dealing with neuro divergent children and make no effort to support all children seeming to focus primarily on having the children fit into a prescribed mold. They do more damage than they seem to be aware...
